Cabs for the Birds?
John and Dorothy picked out several Cabernet Sauvignons from biggest wine retailers, buyers' clubs Costco and Sams, and did find a couple of bargains. However, their ongoing disappointment w/ the wine's current overdone, over-tweaked status is readily apparent in the review.
We would suggest steering clear of the ones they didn't place highest in this review if you're buying from the clubs, and/or working with a cab you trust and love. And as always, when you're preparing for a party (i.e. bulk purchase) get a couple of tester taster bottles first and taste them in the calm before the storm. When happy, buy bulk with confidence.
Here's their video:
And, here's the article:

Great article. I have been obsessed lately with finding value wines, and there are so many out there. Very good values at $8 or $10 and less. I like saving money too....Saucy Joes needs a "Value Sparkling Wines" piece for the Holidays, lots out there under $20...I will work on that!
